The answer would be step three but not positive this is correct hope this helps
The metal is lead, Pb.
One unit of the oxide contains one atom of O (16.00 u).
∴ Mass of oxide = 16.00 u O × (100 u MO/7.17 u O) = 223.15 u MO
Mass of M = mass of MO – mass of O = 223.15 u -16.00 u = 207.2 u
The only element with an atomic mass of 207.2 u is lead (Pb) and the formula of the oxide is PbO.
•The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons it has. If the atomic number is 20 then we know the atom has 20 protons.
•The mass number of an atom is the total number of protons and neutrons the atom contains. The mass number is 41 and the number of protons is 20, just subtract 20 from 41 and you will get the number of neutrons: 41 - 20= 21. The atoms has 21 neutrons.
•The number of electrons found in an atom is equal to the number of protons. The atoms has 20 protons which means it has 20 electrons.
So, the answer is:
B) 20 protons, 20 electrons, and 21 neutrons
The correct answer is option A. Energy cannot be created during an ordinary chemical reaction. There is no such thing as an ordinary chemical reaction. Energy cannot be created or destroyed this is according to the law of conservation of energy. It can only be transformed from one form to another form.
Answer: Balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions is
.
Explanation:
A chemical equation which contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side is called a balanced chemical equation.
For example, 

On cancelling the common species from both these half-reactions, the complete balanced equation will be as follows.
Thus, we can conclude that balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions is
.
